Where was she? Did she see his note? …How did she feel about last night?
He sat a moment on his bed to gather his thoughts. He knew she loved Kuran. What was she going to do? What was he going to do? The certainty of last night's feelings and event had vanished in an instant. He took a look around the room. His closet, the bed, the nightstand, the desk, Yuuki's clothes, nothing seemed out of the ordinary…wait a minute…Yuuki's clothes? His eyes shot to the door leading to his private bathroom. Then he heard someone turn on the water.
His heart had never felt lighter. She hadn't left; she was just taking a shower. Just taking a shower…
He got up and walked briskly to the closed wooden door. He froze with his hand on the doorknob. Would it be okay for him to come in?
"Yuuki?"
A moment for a reply, but hearing nothing over the sound of the running water, called her again, a bit louder this time.
"Yuuki?"
She turned off the water.
"Zero? "
"Yuuki, can I come in?"
She hesitated a little.
"Ah, uhm, give me a minute?"
"Sure"
He heard her grab something and walk over to the door. She appeared wrapped in a white towel, her wet hair cascading on her shoulder. Beauty was her name.
An awkward silence settled between them.
"I…I got you a morning after pill"
"Ah, thank you, but I…I'm already on the pill"
Zero looked troubled at her response, why would she need to take the pill unless she was planning to do things of a sexual nature.
She blushed violently and said quickly,
"It's not what you think! I take it because of the pain of my period!"
They both got redder if possible.
They sat side by side of his bed.
What, now? Nothing would ever be the same, they both knew that. Neither of them could just walk away and pretend nothing happened.
Did she love him?
Did she love him the way a man loves a woman?
Did…Did she like—
"Zero?"
"Yeah?"
"How do you feel about me?"
He felt embarrassed and worried now.
"Why do you want to know?"
"Just tell me, Zero"
"I love you…"
"You do?"
"Yes, so much it hurts"
She lowered her head a little.
"Yuuki?"
"Yes?"
"How do you feel about me?"
